Well, Here it is episode 28. Almost to the big 30, and we finally had to make an executive decision of whether or not to edit out a discussion about racial slurs. This conversation had no hatred or bigotry within the tone of the discussion but rather a light hearted look at how Offensive everything has gotten in our present state of the world and where the line is drawn on how comedy has abandoned the racial slur. We felt by us purely saying these slurs that were a broad range from all ethnicities was just a bit to extreme even for our show. We simply decided we did not want to be misinterpreted as bigots. As we write this, we are still on the fence with this decision as it comes with the heavy price of censorship that is brought upon ourselves. Instead we focus on holiday banter, Enjoy!
